Thank God for officials like Joseph Borelli and Nicole Malliotakis, two new Republican officials doing the job they were elected for.

As I have been saying for the past 25 years, state and city politicians and the authorities have been getting away with the abuse of funds raised by toll hikes. I ask: Is reform needed now more than ever?

Officials and these authorities have been getting away with this for years. Staten Islanders stand up and be counted. Let’s vote those bums out now. Let’s change this broken system and make elected officials and authority be accountable by voting responsibly, sending a message to this city and state.

I support the Advance and would like to thank those reporters for a job well done. I ask you to support those officials who are doing something to fight for toll relief.
